Beauty does not simply refer to compositions of shape, color, balance, and form that yield a sense of aesthetic pleasure and satisfaction. Beauty can also be a set of qualities that pleases the intellect. To the trained eye, a mathematical formula, a chemical equation, or a taxonomic system can be elegant, balanced, and harmonious. Pulchra scientia: The Aesthetics of Discovery presents works by contemporary artists that communicate current scientific developments. This exhibition engages the mind while exploring the ways science invokes art in all forms to communicate complex concepts while reminding us that science is beautiful.
